Laugh and Learn!
Searching for a game where learning and laughter go hand-in-hand? On a basic level, UNO Moo! allows children to practice their colors and matching skills. But players also may find themselves with some “wild” pieces like the Skunk or the Farmer, which adds a bit of strategy and excitement to the game as well. Victory could be just one turn away, but a player better be prepared to say “Uno Moooooo” or else the game continues. Who can win? Anybody. Who will laugh? Everybody.

How to Play
The game begins when a child draws five animal pieces from the barn storage unit and hides them behind his or her individual haystack, out of view from the rest of the players. The first animal piece will be played, by placing it on the top of the barn, resting on the barn door. The next player will compare the animals in his or her haystack with the animal at the barn door. If the animal is a BLUE COW, the player could tip the cow back through the barn door and replace it will any BLUE animal or any color COW. The game continues until a player has successfully played all the animals behind his or her haystack.

Gotcha!
True to the spirit of the original UNO! card game, Uno Moo! has a few “wild” pieces and the shouting “Uno!” requirement. Players who play a SKUNK piece force the next player to add two more animal pieces from the barn to his or her haystack. Players can play a FARMER card at any time. Finally, when a player has only one animal remaining behind his or her haystack, he or she must shout “UNO Moo!” If he or she is caught by another player with one animal before saying this phrase, he or she must add two more animals from the barn to his or her haystack.

What's In The Box?
Includes 1 Play-and-Store Barn, 28 Animal and Farmer pieces, 4 Haystack partitions and Instructions.

Round up the matching colors or animals, the first player to get all of their figures back in the barn wins!

2.0 out of 5 stars Great concept, poor execution..., January 11, 2010

My 3 year old daughter loves to play games, so when we saw this one, it went right on her Christmas list. And for as hard as it was to find this holiday season, I had high expectations. I was disappointed.

Here's my 2 cents:

-It is difficult to randomly pick a character from the barn when you can see what you are picking. We try having everyone close their eyes, but it doesn't really work!
-The haystacks surely won't last long, and if you are playing on the floor, they don't do much good anyways.
-The concept and packaging is great - love the fact that it is small and self contained. The less space it takes up in the closet the better!

The bottom line is that we don't play that this often (and we play a game every night). When it does come out, we usually don't have a successful game. If you are looking for a game that will teach the same rules (color/matching), I would suggest a children's deck of Crazy Eights...we were playing that when she was 2.5 and it was much easier and less frustrating than this game!

If you are looking for other good board games to play for a 3 year old, I would suggest Toy Story Yahtzee Jr, Sequence for Kids, and Zingo. Those are the big hits in our house!

My three and a half year old loves this game. It will assist in teaching colors and animals if your child doesn't already know them. My son's favorite thing is skunking someone (playing the skunk figure) and making someone draw two. As he grows in the next couple of years, it will be a good game to work on stragety and logic.

Bought this for my three year olds birthday & we love it! Great game for little ones who know colors & can match animals. Helps him learn strategy & reminds him to pay attention to rules (Uno!). Like the other reviewer; he loves the skunk, & the "wild card" Farmer is fun too. Quick gameplay keeps even a 3 year old focused. My only complaint is that for $20 you'd think that the "haystack" hiding cards would be something other than paper-thin cardboard (They are also not quite tall enough to actually hide your gamepieces). All in all a very fun alternative for the little ones on family game night.
